Fork-Co USA continues to develop and introduce forks, attachments and accessories for forklifts, adding several new products to our growing stable of quality USA - built equipment. Here is a sample.STONE SLAB BUNDLE EXTRACTORFork-Co's GA30D slab bundle extractor clamp is designed to be the safest, most economical and most efficient method of extracting the heavy, cumbersome bundles of marble, granite and quartz stone available in the stone industry. Designed with all features included, no need for options, this extractor solves many difficult problems handling the dangerous slabs. Our philosophy is that we want to keep personnel out of the fall shadow and keep bundles fully intact. Our fully redesigned clamp incorporates all the features our customers suggested, and has also reduced acquisition costs by nearly 30% comparatively to other similar attachment offerings. Our extractors are built under our Unit Load Handling Systems brand name since 2003. PIPE HOLD DOWN CLAMPSPipe hold down clamps are a natural product for Fork-Co USA, being based in the Houston, Texas area, the "Energy Capital of the World." We are experts at building pipe clamps that are easy to retro-fit to existing forklifts of most any make, any capacity and pipe diameters. Our product line covers from under 5,000 LB trucks all the way through 65,000 LB trucks. From 48" long forks to over 108" long forks. And any carriage width. Contact us with your pipe diameters, weights, forklift make and model and we will get back with a preliminary estimate. Fork-Co pipe clamps are manufactured under our Unit Load Handling Brand name and are used virtually world-wideNEW PRODUCT RELEASE: RDD 60 Rotator We have introduced our new model RDD 70 rotator to complement the smaller RDD 45 series. RDD 70 is a class III rotator having 7000 LB @ 24 inch load center capacity and plenty of rotational torque. It offers a choice of 42 inch wide or 48 inch wide fork bars as standard. Similar to its little brother, the RDD 45, the RDD 70 is a powerful direct-drive design with a built-in hydraulic locking valve to prevent drift and cavitation. Its "open architecture" design permits full through-the-core operator visibility. Both rotators accept standard forklift forks. And, as is the smaller RDD 45, it is one price for any standard configuration.

Sleeve forks are hollow, tubular fork blades designed to extend load base support while able to accept much higher loading than standard fork extensions. We have built these for many sizes of forklifts and in many lengths. We recently built a pair 15 feet long for a 100,000 LB forklift.

Available in fixed mount or sideshifting, quick attach or conventional mounts, fixed or movable forks, either manual or hydraulic. Spreaders can be designed to expand to various widths and can have a variety of fork lengths and styles.
FORK PROTECTION PRODUCTSProtecting products from the scars and bumps caused by forks has been one of the main product efforts of Fork-Co. We have developed FORK-COVERS made from heavy, double laminate nylon webbing. We designed and built our POLY-COATED FORK SLEEVES for handling stainless steel, galvanized and finished materials where rough handling is the norm. When the top of forks was causing punctures in SUPER-SACS, we invented the FORK-HAT. No more leaking big bags. Click for more info.COIL RAMSCoil rams come in both hook mount and pin mount styles. Capacities range up to 70,000 LB with our designs saving cost and weight. We offer fast, on time delivery because we control all facets of the fabrication process. We have shipped many sizes and styles, small diameter, high capacity versions and the traditional styles as well. We also offer the under-slung fork mounted type rams, as well as slip-on coil ram fork sleeves. They are available in stainless steel and also with poly or UHMW load protection for sensitive materials.
